Unlikely, it is frost hardy - but you're talking seriously cold!

Hi, thanks for your question. The plant is Scleranthus biflorus, a New Zealand native. It's really happy in full sun, and requires good drainage.

You could perhaps try a sand-blasted glass as a substitute and with regards to the plants perhaps Baby Tears as recently featured on Houzz could be an option for you. http://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/14650960/list?utm_source=Houzz&utm_campaign=u356&utm_medium=email&utm_content=gallery25

Hi, thanks for your question. The mossy plant is Scleranthus biflorus a New Zealand native, I'm not sure which other countries it is available in. It can handle full sun just fine, but doesn't like wet feet. I hope that helps.

Hi, it is Fairy bamboo (Bambusa gracilis) a graceful clump forming thin stemmed bamboo.

Although I don't know the conditions, I imagine that this idea would work - but you will still require reasonable light levels. Alternatively, instead of moss you could incorporate the Japanese sand garden style with rocks and water and a perhaps couple of plants

Hi, thanks for your enquiry. The rocks were sourced through a local Tauranga landscape supply company. Most towns and cities will have a landscape supply company that should be able to source other products for you, otherwise try your nearest quarry.

Hi Hazel, thanks for your comments. Probably the best idea would be to print the photo and take it to your local landscape supply company to see what is available locally.

It is Scleranthus biflorus (Sunshine Moss is it's common name) and it is a New Zealand native. Ophiopogon nana (mondo grass) could also work in a semi shaded position, although the green will be a bit darker.

Hi, thanks for your interest. It is just regular topsoil and watering is minimal as the area is exposed to rain. Scleranthus (mossy looking plant) is quite happy to be relatively dry.
